description

Abstract 1. Crayfish were exposed to 1 25 th 96-hr lc 50 and 96-hr lc 50 of lindane and endosulfan for 1, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hr. 2. Concentrations of lindane and endosulfan were determined in gill tissue at 22°C and 29°C. 3. Clear differences were found in all concentrations, times and temperatures tested in gill tissues. 4. The highest accumulation of pesticide was found in the lc 50 endosulfan value.
